Is this peak moonbat stupidity over Ukraine?

  If it isn’t, it’ll do until something even more spectacularly bone-headed comes along.  Click the image for a larger view. Dear Ms. Forsythe, For your information, as far as I’m aware, there are vanishingly few (if any) authentically black or brown ethnic Russians.  Their native genes (you should pardon the expression) don’t contain the necessary color-coding. … Continue reading Is this peak moonbat stupidity over Ukraine?

When race replaces law and facts in the jury room

  I’m angry, but not surprised, to read of the collapse of a murder trial in Florida due to racial issues. The foreperson of the jury in the murder trial of Dayonte Resiles said three jurors were unwilling to convict Resiles based on his race. The foreperson discussed on Friday the most recent twist in… Continue reading When race replaces law and facts in the jury room

Complete and utter bullshit, courtesy of Washington State University

  I’m gritting my teeth to hold back a few (well, more than a few) choice expressions of my opinion at this report. The Agriculture Program Coordinator for WSU’s San Juan County Extension Ag Program promoted a webinar event titled, “Examining Whiteness in Food Systems.” During the hour-long presentation, attendees learned that “white supremacy culture”… Continue reading Complete and utter bullshit, courtesy of Washington State University

In Memoriam: F. W. de Klerk, the last leader of apartheid

  It’s with mixed feelings that I read of the death of F. W. de Klerk, last white State President of the apartheid-era Republic of South Africa. F.W. de Klerk, who shared the Nobel Peace Prize with Nelson Mandela and as South Africa’s last apartheid president oversaw the end of the country’s White minority rule,… Continue reading In Memoriam: F. W. de Klerk, the last leader of apartheid

Talk about condescension and contempt! Bigotry on display

  One of the most mind-boggling results of Tuesday’s elections in Virginia and elsewhere, in which left-wing candidates did not fare well, has been the reaction of the progressive ultra-liberal left to their loss.  Typical of it has been this tweet from someone using the name Helen Carter: I thought at first that this had… Continue reading Talk about condescension and contempt! Bigotry on display

Lessons to learn from the Afrikaner controversy

  It’s been an enlightening few weeks. On June 15th, in response to a panegyric that was so over-the-top it was nauseating, I published an article titled “No, the Afrikaners were NOT ‘The Heroic White Tribe of Africa’ “.  To say that it attracted negative feedback is an understatement.  From the attacks launched in the… Continue reading Lessons to learn from the Afrikaner controversy

Defending my thesis about South Africa and the Afrikaners

  Last week I published an article titled ‘ No, the Afrikaners were NOT “The Heroic White Tribe of Africa” ‘.  I tried to demonstrate that the Afrikaners were, in fact, guilty of dooming themselves, because of their innate racism and refusal to share the wealth of their country with other groups, races and cultures. … Continue reading Defending my thesis about South Africa and the Afrikaners

No, the Afrikaners were NOT “The Heroic White Tribe of Africa”

  I was saddened, and more than a little angry, to read at American Renaissance an over-the-top panegyric to the Afrikaner “white tribe” of South Africa.  It’s titled “The Heroic White Tribe of Africa“.  It begins: The Afrikaners are a truly heroic people, with a history of courage, perseverance, and faithfulness unmatched in modern times.… Continue reading No, the Afrikaners were NOT “The Heroic White Tribe of Africa”

The curse of “identity politics”: setting groups at each other’s throats

  The Democratic Party and the Biden Administration are systematically pushing the poison of “identity politics” on us in every conceivable walk of life.  I think Prof. Amy Chua described it well. When groups feel threatened, they retreat into tribalism. When groups feel mistreated and disrespected, they close ranks and become more insular, more defensive,… Continue reading The curse of “identity politics”: setting groups at each other’s throats
